Upton Lakes Lodges

3.6

out of 5

These lodges are wonderfully set in the heart of the Devon countryside with an abundance of wildlife. Each lodge has either a lakeside or hill top setting. Perfect for a relaxing romantic break, complete with hot tubs and nestling amidst rolling hills and lakes, this scenic retreat will suit couples, nature lovers and families in search of serenity.

Coarse fishing is available (free of charge).

For those with a sense of adventure, Upton Lakes Lodges is an ideal base for exploring with the River Culm just a short walk away and the National Trust site of Killerton within 5 miles. The cathedral city of Exeter, the historic town of Honiton, Dartmoor and Exmoor are also only a short drive away.

The village of Cullompton, just 1 mile away from this haven, provides excellent places to eat and drink with local country pubs and a variety of activities such as tennis, squash, badminton and golf.

If I could leave zero stars, I would. Honestly had the worst experience this weekend. Rotten decking, broken and freezing cold hot tub, broken safety railings, filthy cooking appliances. Site maintenance were useless. On the second night, the rotten decking collapsed beneath me (at 34 weeks pregnant this could have been catastrophic). Worst of all, is that despite 19 phone calls to both Hoseasons and the lakes themselves, no one will speak to me. I have emailed a formal complain which has not even received an acknowledgment reply. I would never recommend this run down and filthy accommodation, and would definitely not recommend booking anywhere through Hoseasons as their customer care is non existent.

To start the holiday off, I never received a email/text to let me know where I can get the key from. I had to ask a man who said he was the site manager, he told me nobody have turned up and told me the code for the lock to gain access to the key.Upon entrance the floors were very dirty. So spent 30 minutes hoovering the floors. Finding a dummy, a board game and a child's book along the way. Thought we would stick the kettle on and sit down to unwind, turned the TV on to find the channel babe station on the TV. Opened up the cupboard to get some mugs out to find they still had dirt stains inside them. So then spent another 10 minutes washing up. Then when coming to dry them found the tea towel that was left out had stains all over it.Thought we would check the plates, glasses and cutlery to be disappointed in the same dirty condition. The roads/access to the lodge are very very poor. We had to navigate through pot holes from the main entrance to the lodge. Absolutely disgusting. The area of where the lodge is located is very nice, very relaxing/quiet and private. So can't fault that! Plenty of shops, takeaways/restaurants within arms reach.The ashtrays in the back decking area still filled up with dirty fags. Was very disappointed in the overall experience and was happy to leave at 8am on the departure date. Unfortunately wouldn't recommend to anyone, and will not be going back. It's such a shame.

This is the second time that I have stayed here, the first time was fantastic as it was a new place to be, however there were some issues, door handles falling off, telly doesn’t work in any of the rooms, but I stayed there for Christmas 2024 and I was appalled by the deterioration of the place, same door handles were broken, again no tv in any of the rooms, showers were so low in pressure that I gave up trying to have one, hole in the decking, filthy hot tub, dirty unemptied fire places, they say it caters for 6 it only realistically caters for 4 no glasses or enough plates, just a run down tired shed that’s advertised as amazing, complete waste of money
